    Well that was an enjoyable 6 minutes. From barely a shot to three goals. 
    Kane drove me mad in the Euros in the summer, but that pass was superb.

  • Has there ever been a game in which 4 players have scored their first goal for England?
  • Very nice...

  • Four players scoring for the first time for England. That has to be near to some sort of record for any country let alone England?
  • Shame that Pickford wasnt given the chance to score the penalty lol!

    This most be the most English players to ever play in an international game. 16 for England & about 10 for Ireland 😂

    Christmas will be interesting in the Keane household 🤣🤣

    Ireland played very well in the first half. No idea what was said at halftime as they weren’t anywhere near as good at the start of the second half & once yer man was sent off it was damage limitations.

    Job done 👍🏼

    Ireland reminded me of Charlton, boring and no real quality with little imagination in the tactics department. Always going to happen if they conceded first.

    Said the same thing. Bad enough watching Charlton.

    Roy Keane doesn't strike me as a man who would enjoy a bit of gentle joshing over the Christmas dinner, I would imagine you would be removing Brussels and Carrots from various orifices all Boxing Day, not to mention the stuffing!.

    Ireland played such a low block that they had a 5 +5 formation with Ferguson (central Striker) playing just outside ROI penalty area ! 
    Lee Dixon said what most thought, get the ball forward quicker; this we did occasionally after the rare break out of the Alamo defending by the men in green in the tactical 1st half. 

    Like children at Xmas, CL posters start getting upset if their can't have their goals/presents straight away. They start cursing and calling Santa Harry Kane a cart horse. If not they criticise Santa's helpers Gordon and Madueke by saying their shit.

    After breakfast, HT, Santa Harry sent a gift to Bellingham of such Quality that I thought it was sent by Elf, Trent AA. Quick feet by Hey Jude and the defender bought it. Scales was sent to the naughty step and England under Captain, Santa Kane unwrapped the Irish defence with ease with 4 new boys getting their first goal presents for their promotion as 9 other Elves didn't turn up.

    The pecky little Molumby in saying that santa hit him in the face got what he deserved. A yellow card and fuck all presents.

    5-0 and the moral to this story is wait until the end of the match or otherwise you look like a right old bell end especially if you slag off Santa.

    Weihnachten Xmas coming next.

    Less said about the first half the better. Second half was fun though and a cracking atmosphere inside and outside the stadium, and a good craic with the Irish fans.

    Ireland were woeful though.

    Apparently not. According to Radio 5, it happened in 1930 v Northern Ireland (or something like that - I was driving at the time).
